In anticipation of the première of "Penny
Dreadful", a terrifying saga reinventing some of the most terrifying and
horrific characters from literature, The Sketchbook Project recently invited
1000 artists to “illustrate a monster, create an eerie scene, or share your
greatest fear of something that lurks within us all—in the shadows.”

Here's my contribution...

And yesterday I got the following email from the project:

Hi Jenny,

I simply wanted to reach out to you to send our
"Congratulations" on behalf of The Sketchbook Project team! Out of
the 1,000 participants from the "Dreadful" Project, your artwork was
chosen to be published in The New Yorker! I included here a link to the
article, and there are hard copies of the issue all about the city where you
can find your artwork on paper!

We can't thank you enough for taking the time to
participate, and are excited to see the amazing places you go from here with
your art!
